Message: [QUOTE="Millhouse, post: 1216087, member: 78"] yards per play isn't perfect but it's all i have easily available. success rates would be nice to know. dumb example if you have a 99 yard TD and throw picks on your next 4 drives, you have 20 yards per play. but i think over enough games this stuff sorts out. i think it's more about big plays than 1st downs in college because if you force an most offenses to have a lot of plays, eventually someone will blow it SU was 16th in first downs in 2012, 17th in yards, 36th in YPP, and 55th in scoring. being smarter on 4th down is low hanging fruit that is much easier than improving yards per play margin. i think baylor is a perfect example. 1st in offense, 24th in yards per play, because they're head and shoulders better than everyone else at 4th down conversions we're 103rd in 4th down attempts low hanging fruit [/QUOTE]
